I still have not wallpapered the living room as I have not finished wiring the house so please forgive the simple white paper used for this photo.
The Frida Kahlo head is a broche as is the twig with the birds, the gold wire cubes are earrings, the Buddha is made from a bead.
At the fair I had bought a table by Melissa (Laserville) which I also gave a more art deco feel.
The rug is wallpaper with a velvet finish.
The Jeff Koons balloon dog was a pendant.
Last but not least, I decided to give Elizabeth's tutorial a go.
My ribbon is quite a bit smaller but it worked nonetheless. The blue ribbon did not have a wire finish on the sides so I used some wool to finish the neck and sleeves. Thank you Elizabeth, this was fun to do!
Thank you for visiting my blog and for your comments, it inspires me to move forward.
I love the wallpaper-rug idea.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThank you Brandy
VerwijderenI love your art-deco shelves, including all the ornaments on them, the wine cart too is lovely.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenYou did a great job with the ribbons, following Elizabeth's tutorial. I love the results.
Hugs, Drora
Thank you Drora! Elizabeth's tutorial was very clear and a real fun project to make.
VerwijderenHugs!
bonne inspiration et réalisation excellente de l'étagère ! une jolie pièce lumineuse et moderne
BeantwoordenVerwijderenbravo pour les pulls suivant le tutoriel d'Elizabeth !

Merci Claude.
VerwijderenVous aussi, bonne soirée!
WOW, wat een prachtige art-deco kast(en) heb je gemaakt, Véronique, ze zijn prima gelukt! Het ziet er net zo uit als bij Monsieur Poirot, waarvan ik óók de interieurs altijd zeer interessant vind ;)! De tafel en de 'beeldende' kunst passen er prachtig bij, mooie nieuwe aanwinsten voor het interieur.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenNou, jouw mini kersttruien mogen er zijn, hoor, ze zijn zeker goed gelukt, leuk! Ik heb ook al eens rondgespeurd voor kerstlint, maar ik kan nergens wat geschikts vinden helaas.
Groetjes, Ilona xx
Dank je Ilona! Het was wel een gepruts hoor die half ronde kast maar ik ben er ook blij mee.
VerwijderenLeuk hé Poirot? Hij en Miss Marple, klassiekers die altijd leuk blijven.
Deze linten komen van de intratuin. Ze zijn maar 3,5 cm breed maar toch kan het wel. Is inderdaad heel moeilijk te vinden omdat nog niet alles van kerst in de winkel stond.
Fijne avond nog!

Ja, vind ik ook: Poirot en Miss Marple zijn inderdaad échte klassiekers.
VerwijderenOooh, van Intratuin....?? Ga ik zo gauw ik kan eens even kijken, dankjewel Véronique, helemaal niet aan gedacht :)!
Liefs, Ilona xx

VerwijderenI LOVE your shelf and how you've decorated it with such interesting and creatively repurposed things! The earrings would also make great book ends! The coffee table kit is perfect for the space, and your finishing is lovely! Great idea to use the paper as a rug, too!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenYou did a great job with Elizabeth's tutorial, and I love how you gave them your own special flavor!
Thank you Jodi. I agree, they would make great book ends. I may have to make some books now ;-)
VerwijderenLa estantería es preciosa!! la mesa queda perfecta en el mismo estilo y esos jerseys han quedado muy bonitos!!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenBesos.
Muchas gracias Pilar!

Hello, Veronique - I'm very happy to have found your blog, after you left such nice comments on mine! I'm glad that I didn't miss this post, because I think your Art Deco shelves are beautiful - and I'm so impressed with your cleverness in the use of jewelry, etc. for all the objects on the shelves. Great ideas! You've also done a good job on "Elizabeth's Sweaters" - they do look like a fun thing to try.

Welcome Marjorie, glad to see you here. Thank you for your kind words. Elizabeth 's sweaters are a fun project indeed. Very tempting to make many more.
VerwijderenLa vitrina te ha quedado genial. También me he fijado en la mesita de las bebidas a juego.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenLa mesa es muy bonita y los jerseys te han quedado muy bien !!!!
Muchas gracias Eloisa!
VerwijderenWow! Veronique, your shelves look Amazing! I would never ever have thought they were "home-made"! Beautiful accent for this house too! The little treasures you display are lovely as well... the Jeff Koons dog is hilarious in mini!!! You have done a great job with Elizabeth's tutorial as well! What a fun post! :):)
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThank you Betsy! Isn't the little dog fun? Not sure I would wear it as a pendant but it looks right at home on the coffee table ;-)
VerwijderenGlad you like my post :-)
Hugs
I can only say: BRAVO!!! This shelf is stunning!!! When it first appears in the third picture I thought for a moment this was also a real inspiration from the internet. Fantastic work - and I really like the way you've decorated it, a lovely collection showing the little people in this house are dedicated to art. Speaking of art, this balloon dog is one great find. I really like the way it is displayed on that wonderful table and that paper rug is one clever idea. Your sweaters turned out fantastic… I foresee more of them! ;O)

Thank you Birgit for your kind words. The shelves were a bit fiddly but I got there in the end.
VerwijderenThe sweaters were fun and yes, I might make more along the same system ;-)
Oh my, those shelves are wonderful! Very professional and beautifully decorated.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThank you Sam! You make me blush ;-)
VerwijderenWow I love your shelves they are awesome. The collection of art is amazing. I also love your table the balloon dog is a beautiful piece.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenHugs Maria
Thank you Maria, the shelves were a challenge but I am pleased with how they turned out.
VerwijderenHugs,
Véronique
Your shelves actually look better than the inspiration! The wine rack is a perfect match. May I ask who made the beautiful table. I have never seen one like that before!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThank you so much Grandmommy! Gluing round things is never simple so I am pleased with the end result.
VerwijderenThe coffee table is this one: https://www.etsy.com/nl/listing/609370117/dollshouse-miniatuur-een-schalen-112-diy
I spray painted the base with gold paint and painted the top off white. That changes the whole look of the table.
Wow I love this shelf and tables. The interior is wonderful. Everything looks real and beautiful. The scenery of the shelves is great!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI love Poirot and Miss Mrpl! Agatha Christie is one of my favorite authors!
Hugs
